British Prime Minister Theresa May's office confirmed the investigation after the Sunday Mail newspaper published Caroline Edmondson's allegations and Garnier's admission.
Edmondson alleged that Garnier took her to a sex shop in London in 2010 and asked her to buy two vibrators, one for his wife and one for a woman in his constituency office, while he waited outside.
"Another time in the bar he said to me in the hearing of others, 'You are going nowhere, sugar tits. He was worried I was going to go off and work for another MP. It was awful" she said.
Garnier admitted in the Sunday Mail report that both events took place but denies they constituted sexual harassment, saying that he and Edmondson "got on fine" at the time but that they later "fell out" and that Edmondson was "disgruntled. I'm not going to deny it, because I'm not going to be dishonest. I'm going to have to take it on the chin" he said.
UK Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt told The Andrew Marr Show on the BBC Sunday that there would be a Cabinet Office investigation into "whether there has been a breach of the Ministerial Code in this particular case." Hunt added May would write to the speaker of Parliament's House of Commons, John Bercow, "to ask his advice on how to change this culture." ... spill TEA.... Easy on Shade #jaiyeorie
